Emirates Airline on Sunday announced that flight operation to and from Nigeria is still on hold.
This is despite the Federal Government, through the Minister of Aviation, Hadi Sirika, announcing the lifting of the ban on the operations of the airlines in Nigeria.
The ban was lifted in response to the United Arab Emirates’ removal of some conditions placed on Nigerian passengers.
However, barely 48 hours after Sirika’s announcement, Emirates Airline on its website, said, “Emirates direct flight operation to and from Nigeria is still on hold.
“Affected flight bookings have been cancelled.
“If your flight has been cancelled or impacted by route suspensions due to COVID 19 restrictions, you don’t need to call us immediately for rebooking.
“You can simply hold on to your Emirates ticket and when flights resume, get in touch with your booking office or us to make new travel plans.”
